TO AID OUR
FAIR OPENS
TUESDAY, JULY IL,

A large number of our readers, residing in
many States, were former citizens of Mechan-
icstown; some are even yet interested dlrtc-
ly in the town while Others regard it kindly
rs the home of their youth In this place
they were born, felt their first love and pos
sibly experienced their first sorrow; to its
schools they owe their education, to its
churches, their rectitude of life, to its me-
chanics their trades, to its ualdens wife.
. To such. we address ourselves; Friends, lay
upon the altar of your kindly remembrance
whatsoever gift may to you seem fitting, ad-
dress it to THE CLARION and Ill these col
umns will its receipt be acknowledged and
the article or sum, turned over to the officers
ofour "Fireman's Fair"
1t will be one way in which THE CLARION
may aid the cause with more drectncss than
words and it will he source of qualification
to us, should our request be needed. Cash
in any sum, or articles for the Fair Will fully
meet the requirements of the case.
And now, whose name will appear first;
we desire to start the list next week as there
will be but three more issues before the Fair
opens.

Work BEGUN-On Monday last the Dam
Construction Committee began work upon
the dam, or reservoir on High Run and BY
the time the iron begins to arrive they will
be ready with their part of the work. The
reservoir will be built to contain about, 100
600 gallons of water; it will be fed by a
stream that at its lowest will flow from one
and half to two millions of gallons in
twenty,four hours. In case Of high floods
the water will be turned automatically into
another course and the danger of filing up
with silt avcrted
The Company is paying eleven cents an
hour and working ten hours.
Mr.. N Rowe of Emmitsburg has secured
the Dlumming and will work as many hands
as the Water Company may require. The
iron will begin to arrive during next week.
TIE HARPER FAILURE caused no little
excitement and uneasiness in our town last
week, as our people understood that they
were the financial hackers of The Cat0ctin
Iron Company and did not know what cf-
feet E. l.. Harpcr's stupcndous swindlcs and
failure might have upon the Iron Company.
We find that its effect has been the placing
of the Catoctin Iron Company in the hands
Of receiver, Mr.. Thos. Gorsuch, the pIcsi.
dent Of the First National Bank of Frclcr-
lex. This action will insure the conlinu,
ancc Of the works, at least until it is demon
stratcd that they cannot be conducted at a
profit and this we trust and believe will not
be demonstrated ut all. We sincerely trust
that the Catoctin Iron Company may not
have been one of shark Ilarpcl's victims and
that it may emerge from whatever complica
tons may arise through Mr.. Ilarpcr's pccu-
liar methods of doing business, with sulli-
cicnt strength TO stand alone in the conduct
Of the CatoCtin Furnaces.
In event Of the worst that may bcfall the

STATES ATTORNEY GRINNELL.

An interesting letter to the Cincinnati
Commercial-Gazette on the subject of the
anarchist trial has this about the prose-
cutting officer:
After the arrests everything depended
upon the States attorney. Who was he?
Would he do his duty? Would he dare
do it? Could any good come out of
man elected in an election characterized
bv fraud, forgeries and ballot-box stuff
ing?
Well, the man was Julius S. Grinnell,
and he was as much the man for his place
as MARITIME was the man for his place in
New York.
Grinnell is still young man. He has
a clear-cut face, bright eyes, nervous
manner. smooth face and heavy sandy
mustache, and is as handsome as he is an
agreeable and an attractive man. He is
a native of st. Lawrence county, New
York State, and an alumnus of Middle
bury college, in Vermont, college which
has furnished Chicago with large num-
Der of prominent men in the professions,
including such men at the bar as States
Attorney (now judge Grinnell, Judge
Richard Tuthill, Abner Smith, Horace F.
White and others.
This answers the question as to who
Grinnell is.
As to whether he would do his duty
and dared to do it was answered by him
at once. He took the ballot-box suffers,
all men of his own party, and sent them
to the penitentiary, and made the bust
ness dangerous and odious.
He took Anarchy by the throat and
choked its breath off.
Then he attacked the richest and most
strongly entrenched Doodle gang of city
government in the country and broke it
up, sending some to the penitentiary and
others hurryng away to Canada.
TO use an old expression, Mr. Grnnell
has made himself IA terror to evil doors,
and now retires to the bench full of hon
Ors.
Yon may getat Mr.. Grinnell's character
more clearly in personal way by being
told that during the Doodle trials an at
tempt was made to abstract some impor-
tant papers from Mr.. Grinnells office. 1t
was done under cover of law, and a con-
stable accompanied the parties.
When Grinnell came in and understood
the situation he immediately proceeded
to business. He has big policeman on
duty at his office. but he did not call upon
him. He picked up one man and threw
him out of the door. He kicked another
down the elevator well and knocked an
other down stairs, and got through in
time to mop up the hail floor with the
first mentioned man.
In about thirty seconds the office was
a scene of perfect calm and peacefulness,
and Mr.. Grnnell was writing at his desk.
1t would remind one of the time Hon.
Benjamin Butterworth knocked a boodler
through his glass office door into the cor
rilor outside.
The people who came for the papers
did not take them that day, and failed to
come after them afterwards.

HISTORY OF THE RUTLAND RAIL.
ROAD.

The Rutland railroad was chartered in
the year 1913. The charter was modified
in 1S47, and the name was changed to the
Rutland & Burlington railroad. The
line was opened in 1s49, and in 1853 the
property passed into the hands of mort
gage trustees. 1t was recognized in 1867
under the existing title of "The Rutland
Railroad" In 1870 it was leased to the
Vermont Central Railroad for 20 years
at rental of S376,OOO year, and in adj
dition S94, 800 for 1874, and increasing
amounts for each succeeding year. The
lease was modfiedlin 1875. A minimum
rental of $250,000 has been paid with
$4,000 for organization expenses. The
Addison railroad which had been leased
by the Rutland company was transferred
to the Central Vermont by the lease of
its own road. The capital stock of the
Rutland railroad isl So, 100000, of which
the preferred is 100000 and the re-
mainder common. Its funded debt Is
$3,000,000. The amount paid by the
Delaware & Hudson for the control of
the road cannot be ascertained.

EVER TRUE.

Joyous at heart as a summer day
lassie stands by the meadow way,
And looks at a face that is very dear,
And wonders in words that know nothing Of fear
will you be true, lover will you be trueY
Will you love me as love you?
Will love grow stronger years roll on,
And be truest when youth and beauty have
gomez
Will you be true, lover will you be truef'
Joyous at heart on their wedding morn
Husband and wife walk home through the corn,
And each seems to hear the old time song
AS, hand in hand, they wander along:
will you be true, lover will you be truep
Viii you love me as love you?
Will love grow stronger years roll on,
And be truest when youth and beauty have
gomez
Will you be true, lover will you be trueS'
Joyous at heart when their hair is gray
Husband and wife together stray,
And hand clasps hand as they pass along,
And the heart of each is glad with song
you have been true, love! you have been true
Loving me well as have loved you
And time and change, and good ana i'll
Have linked us closer and closer still
Hearts ever true, love. hearts ever true.

BOOMING THE EAST.

The following is an extract from let
ter by Robert Burdette to the Bradford
Opinion, written when it was proposed to
establish shirt factory in that town;
All the 'hurrah" on this continent
shouldn't be monopolized by Kansas
City and Dakota. You have all the raw
material right here for boom as big as
a cyclone. l have frequently noticed
that the New Englander who was con-
sentative, calmy satisfied, plar' con-
tented with the existing Ordc IS
while he abode under the sh, he
mountain, was the very manM. -tn
to paw the dirt and make the dust lily
and evolved for two story wooden town
a boom that blossomed with corner lots,
opera houses, big hotels and new rail-
roads, before he had been on the prairies
long enough to see "blZZard." Now
this is all in him at home, if you can on
ly bring it out of him. Nothing can
make the country more beautiful that is
all finished, and a town left to itself, to
do its own growing, is also finished. 1t
will grow no faster and no more than
the rocks and the hills, and it won't be
half so picturesque. To catch up with
the natural scenery in this land of grand
eur and beauty any town will have to
''hustle." Sleep is a good thing, and
slumber is great medicine. But eight
cen hours day of it is an overdose. A
little more sleep won't build a new hotel,
and little more folding of the hands to
sleep won't catch on to the shirt factory.
These are days of haste and steam hurry
ing days of gallop and gulp, and the
man who isn't at the station when the
train goes by, gets left.
